Application filed April 14, 1899.

To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, AARON M. WEBER, a citizen of the United States,residing at Oshkosh, in the county of Winnebago, State of Wisconsin,have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Dress Bindings andFacings, of which the following is a description, reference being had tothe accompanying drawings and to the letters of reference markedthereon.

My invention relates to improved dress bindings and facings; and theobject is to provide a double binding for garments.

The invention therefore consists in an outer and an inner binding, sothat when the outer binding is worn out it can be cut off clean to theedge and there will still remain the inner binding, giving the samefinish to the skirt as it had before.

The invention is illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in which-Figure 1 is a front view of a portion of a garment provided with myimproved double binding, and Fig. 2 is a cross-section of the same.

To make the double binding, I first preferably take a bias strip ofeither plain or rubber-treated material suitable for a skirt-binding andWide enough to make a binding and a facing, this being indicated in thedrawings if desired, may insert a cord a.

This is preferably stitched on in a manner so that the stitches will notshow and, it will be seen, forms a finished binding and facing. I thenstitch over this inner facing or binding a strip of rubber-treatedvelvet or other suit able material, so as to cover the first binding,forming asecond binding and facing, this be- .ing indicated at 0.

In testimony whereof I affix my signature in presence of two witnesses.
